    What was the longest break you ever taken from language learning? 🤔

    • @teresita.lozada
      @teresita.lozada 4 года назад +6

      French from 1994/95 to 2012 and then I reactivated it to this day hoping to reach a B2 level.

      That’s ok! I stopped Italian for about 4 months but got back into it!

    "You don't have to study language the way people tell you to" YES

      @SheaJordan  4 года назад +2

      Truth!!!! It's one of the most important things I've learned!

    It gets really tough to get back into language learning after a long break. I once felt like, language learning is just a waste of time, just because I couldn't see any progress. I took a break to refresh my mind. And when I changed my mind to get back into language learning, it became hard for me to do it. I realized that I was missing one thing― CONSISTENCY! And that's what I gained when started language learning after a break of a few months. Loved the video Shea!

      Totally, it's frustrating not seeing progress! Consistency is definitely key. Thanks for watching!

    "You don't have to study language the way people tell you to" so true!
    I wanted to improve my English, and I took a workbook (like in school) and I hated it, I didn't improve it at all. Then I just continued watching videos in English (without the intention of improving the language, it was just for fun) and I improved it drastically.
    Now I'm trying to learn Italian...
    I really love your videos!

    • @SheaJordan
      @SheaJordan  4 года назад +2

      Yes! This is something I've discovered during self study. I also tried to start with a workbook and there are so many more effective ways to learn :)

  • @gelatogirl24

    How did you know I had taken a break? :) Thanks for all your tips. Love your language videos. I def need to figure out a plan. Maybe after the holidays!

    @ighlearning 4 года назад +3

    Very important your video because some people think that when you stop learning a language it's only bad. But doing a break several months of learning is a huge opportunity for your brain to rest and during this time you can just make a test on yourself and see how many skills do you remember.

    • @SheaJordan
      @SheaJordan  4 года назад

      Definitely! Sometimes you just need a break. Thanks for watching ☺️

    I needed something like this!! Sometimes it is difficult to study a language if there is no plan, this is very important as well, learning a language is a process and sometimes that process needs a plan... Thank you, Shea!! ;) I'm gonna restart the Italian language... you motivate me :)

    What you’re saying about a huge monthly plan is so true! It can be so overwhelming and I skipped so many days that I became unmotivated and I haven’t done Japanese in around 2 years because of that. Thanks so much these tips are great!

    I have sometimes taken breaks from learning Chinese because I have been busy with Uni and work but watching netflix shows and speaking to my taiwanese and chinese friends, motivates me to get back to work and improve my chinese. I feel like taking breaks isn't bad, so long as you make sure that in the long-term, you are improving.

    Hi Shea! I'm learning Spanish and I also have a foodie page on Instagram. I wanted to better connect with great food makers in my hometown of Queens, NY! In the new year, I am going to focus on Latin America - that will give me more of a push to keep improving my Spanish. Thanks also for letting us know that you don't have to know much to get on italki - I've been studying for months and still feel like I can't say much, haha...
